Shortly and succinctly, there are 4 designs:
Grendel: The SAAMI spec chamber with compound throat and .300 neck.
CSS/LW chamber: compound throat but with a .295 neck. CSS marketed these as the Match Grendel chamber if I recall correctly. I have been told LW and CSS will still cut this chamber on request.
LBC .264: Traditional chamber with .295 neck.
"Grendel II": Same as LBC but with a .300 neck.
I hesitate to call this new one "Grendel II" because I agree with LR1955 that what makes a Grendel unique is the compound throat. I really wonder why Saterns decided to call it "Grendel II" and why they didn't just use the .295 neck in the LBC. However that is for another thread.
Lets leave this one for loading information.

You seek escape from pain. We seek the achievement of happiness. You exist for the sake of avoiding punishment. We exist for the sake of earning rewards. Threats will not make us function; fear is not our incentive. It is not death that we wish to avoid, but life that we wish to live. - John Galt
